Brief Introduction: The Haizi Mountain is located between Litang and Batong counties. Its strip land is more than 5000 meters high, with Sichuan-Tibetan Road passing by. Glacier landforms developed very well on hills beside. Horn, bounding valley and arête can be seen clearly, U-shaped valley descends straightly to river bottom, and two moraine lakes sit here, hence, the Haizi Mountain belongs to typical glacial landforms.
